Your knowledge of computer history is limited to your obsession with all things Apple to the point you sound retarded since you discount the work of others. Anti-aliased fonts were not an Apple invention and had been the work of many other people and companies.

Who is talking about "anti-alias" fonts. YOU are. I am talking about "Vector Graphic" fonts that the Macintosh, and Steve Jobs pioneered. . . the one on the RIGHT, not the mess of the Anti-Aliased font on the left, in the picture. You are another one who doesn't know his history of computers. I was there and worked with magazines and publishing and KNOW what I am talking about. I've been a writer, editor, and PUBLISHER. . . and I've done everything in those fields including color separations ON A COMPUTER. Try PRINTING that anti-Aliased font. . . and see what you get. Try and print any screen font for professional use. It is useless for that purpose. SHEESH!

I don't discount the work of others, but you certainly discount what Apple has done.
